Let’s get rolling
Here’s a shot of the gallery. Notice the works are framed. My cloe-ups have excluded the frames since there is a significant glare problem with them.

Dear John
The art is a bit between Impressionism and van Gogh. It’s not a style we like. Nevertheless, thanks for showing
The Fab Four of Cley

What an all around wonderful post, John. I would have been onboard for the pan roasted grouper alone (ages since I’ve had that fish), but I very much enjoyed seeing these paintings. The water scenes felt particularly refreshing. Linda AND the Eagles? How could I resist? Big hugs!

I took the photos from a distance to avoid lamp glare. Then I cropped the frames off and, by adjusting the vertical and horizontal settings, could achieve an aspect ratio that resembled a head-on shot, even though the work was at an eight-foot level. There was no glass, but the frames themselves had a significant glare. I’m so pleased you liked the shots since you are a master. Thanks for letting me know. 🐂 🐂 🐂 🐂

Ahh, even with no glass, you had to resort to “technique”.
Good on you! Yes, taking images that are higher than one, is difficult.
I’ve climbed many fire escapes, and snuck up on porches or steps.

Thanks for the tour, John. The paintings are lovely, such vivid colors and texture. I’ll have the pan-roasted grouper, please. It’s a favorite of mine, but one that neither Greg nor I have gotten the knack of cooking groups as well at home as we’d get in a restaurant. And that song is one of my favorites!
